We've all been wondering who Baffert will get to ride Pioneer for the Derby...so thought it might interest some of us that
Stardom Bound has a new rider...Garret Gomez will be aboard from now on... which, I suppose, is no surprise coming form the IEAH camp...I love Mike Smith, so feel rather bad that he's lost her, but he still has Zenyatta...and I beleive Gomez will do well with her.
On another front... everyone might be happy that Zito is going to keep his old warrior, Commentator in training and will run on 4/18...in what looks to be a great race shaping up:
